How many clubs have you reviewed in the last 10 years that are now closed? I was going through the clubs I have reviewed since I joined the site, and two of the clubs (both in the Pittsburgh area) are now closed. I'm sure there are clubs some of you went to 20-30 years ago which are no longer open. So for the purposes of this thread, lets say clubs you have reviewed in the last 10 years that are now closed. If you know why they closed, you can list this information as well.
For me two (2) clubs: Both in Pittsburgh Suburbs
Gloria's Cantina Lounge - Raided for drugs and prostitution
Silky's - Don't know the exact reason, but it was a dive club and I suspect it wasn't making much money with another club down the road (Club Erotica) making bank.

club fuego in hyattsville maryland
winkers in winston salem north carolina
there MIGHT be more......but those two i know for sure
Adding local only clubs i've been to before i joined TUSCL so didn't review i can quickly think of 5 more and i suppose if i really gave it some thought there would be more.
It's a tough business and the choking Ohio laws certainly don't help when i consider that i can quickly think of 8 clubs i've been to that have closed in just the past 6-7 years.
2) Extacy North (Miami) - sister club of Extacy further south in the county - both clubs suck - Extacy North was only open about a year and it was only bikini (seems they could not have the permits to be a full-fledged strip club so would not survive since all clubs in South FL are full-nude) - it's in the hood and there had been clubs there in past years but they didn't seem to last long
3) Take One (down the street from Extacy North) - been around since the 70s (small black club) - closed a year+ ago (the original owner was murdered inside the club in the late 2000s; it was an inside job) - club recently opened as "One" and owned by former Colts RB Edgerin James but I heard it's only open Th- Sat eves only (haven't been yet)
4) Stilleto (near Miami Airport) - not a good location tucked away in a commercial area - club lasted a year or so (too much SC competition in Miami) - location now has a Booby Trap club (1 of 4 in South FL)
5) The Office Falls (Miami) - sister club of The Office but further south (black clubs) - location has had othre clubs there in the past and seem not to stick
6) Vivid Live - nice upscale club - seems there were supposed to be a whole bunch of clubs w/ the Vivid name across the country - but did not survive due to too-many established clubs in Miami - did not last long as is now a gay club
7) Angels - small black club in North Miami which had good clientele - supposedly it closed for renovations about 3 years ago and never reopened
8) Black Diamonds - upscale(ish) black club in north Miami - lasted about a year - location had other clubs going back to the 80s and now has a club called Miami Gold but does not seem to be doing well
9) Flavors - smallish black club in Pompano, FL - in a very small strip mall - restaurant's kitchen next door caught fire and took the club down w/ it about 2-years ago - supposed to reopen but hasn't
10) Pleasers Atlanta - small black club which I believe also caught fire but you couldn't tell if anyone got burned from looking at the custies (just a little ethnic humor there :))
11) Shooter Alley Atlanta - nice black club w/ some ebony babes - lost liquor license and shut down
12) Crazy Horse Detroit - smallish black club - I think it got damaged due to flooding - recently opened as VLive I believe
13) Erotic City - small black hood Detroit club - community saw it as a nuisance and wanted it
shut down
Shooters Alley and Rooster's Barnyard - both in the same shopping center in Doraville, GA at the same time.
Playhouse in Bumfuck, GA
Lady Godiva 2, Platinum Plus and Nikita's Playroom in the Greenville area.
Clubs that I frequented but did not necessarily review -
Cheetah Elite, Pink Pony South, Crazy Horse, Crazy Horse 2, Gold Club, 24K Club, SHE Bar, Stormin Norman's, Hot Spot, and about 10 more where I remember the clubs but can't even recall the names. All in or near Atlanta. Many of these were solid extras clubs (sheds a tear).
Platinum Plus Greenville SC
Godiva's Taylor's SC
I guess 3
Mouses ear Johnston City TN

1. Lariat Club in Fremont, NE, just barely under 10 years ago; owner got busted for drugs
2. Emerald Club (don't remember the exact name) in St. Joseph, MO; don't know what caused it to close, only went there twice
3. Sheri's Showgirls in Omaha NE; owner didn't want to be in business anymore
4. Mickey's Razzle Dazzle in Council Bluffs, IA; I don't really remember what happened there, but I suspect there was a lot of money changing hands in a real estate sale.
5. Tropicana (or Trop 56) in Scranton, KS; I don't know what caused this one to close, but I thought ownership instability was involved
6. 20's Showgirl in Omaha, NE; I heard they had issues with the building and didn't want to deal with it anymore. Building is now Club Omaha.
7. Shotgun Geniez in Hamburg, IA; the owner died and that was it.
1320 Club II in Springfield, VA. Shopping center in which it was located declined to renew lease.
Club I went to but didn't review:
Mustang Sally's, Bloomsburg PA. Club held on for about two years after I went there. Some very hot girls, but very little business. Had a brief second life as a swinger's club.
Most of mine have probably been mentioned. One of my favorites though was Teddy Bears in Gastonia outside of Charlotte. Many great times there! Other than that the usual suspects in Columbia, Greenville, Charlotte, Asheville and Atlanta. I had forgotten some of those older clubs from way back in the day in Atlanta, my first experiences in our little habit we have.
As for Silky's: "2 Dead After Shooting"

FWIW, I gave up on McKees Rocks in 2013. There was too much sketchy gang shit visibly going on in the 'hood. OT: I don't see how Club E persists... terrible location, crap mileage in the basic LDs... guess I never figured out the secret there.
The two Pittsburgh clubs that closed I got really good mileage at those two places. Left happy from both places.
Reason? Dude got killed on the premises. There have been quite a few discussion posts on this subject here so I won't delve into it.
There was also a Mouse's Ear club in Knoxville along I-40/75. Multi-story building and you could see it from the interstate. This club made many a visit to my in-laws not quite as torturous, and if I recall correctly, was the first club where I ever groped a dancer outside of a VIP area (late 80s or early 90s).
